How to upload a Shopify feed to Google Merchant?

Step 2. Specify the basic information for that feed: country of sale and language.



Step 3. Specify the feed name and the connection type - Upload.

Note: the primary feed in Google Merchant should have the same name as the feed in Shopify. See an example on the screenshots below.

It is still empty though, so the next step is uploading the feed file from Shopify to Google Merchant. In order to do that, the path to the primary feed should be specified in the Shopify feed.

Step 1. Please open the SFTP/FTP/GCS tab in the Merchant general settings.


 
Step 2. Select the credentials for the preferable connection method (SFTP/FTP). You can get the password by clicking on the red Generate/Reset button. 



Step 3. Paste the credentials to the feed into the Upload > Connection Settings tab. In the example below, FTP connection is selected and the passive mode should be enabled for this connection type. The path to Google servers is always a root path that could be marked as a slash.



Step 4. Click on Save, then Upload the feed. It will get uploaded to Google Merchant in a few minutes. It might take a little longer depending on the size of the feed and the number of products included.
